Chapter 631 (1/2)

In order to raise more money for military spending, Xia Xiaochan decided to improve the status of businessmen.

As long as the merchant is willing to raise money and reaches a certain number, she will reward the other party with a name of ”good merchant”. For this name, many large merchants rush into the capital within half a month.

Once the ”good merchant” given by the royal family has this name, when bullied by the nobility, businessmen will become a lot of status and confidence. Many businessmen want to become famous after they have enough money, and the name of ”good merchant” gives these people such an opportunity.

In the face of the aristocrats, Xia Xiaochan took the name of the inscribed stele. In order to get the name recorded in the stele and spread through the ages, Xia Xiaochan almost immediately revealed his idea. The aristocrats in the capital were boiling up. Almost all the families with a little family background were willing to pay for such an opportunity to go to the stele.

If you simply ask everyone to take out the money, even if it accounts for the great righteousness of a famous family, it is still of little use.

But now this situation is completely different. Because of the opportunity to commemorate the stone tablet in their own name and family name, and the opportunity to be immortal, all aristocrats of aristocratic families scramble to pay for it.

Xia Xiaochan succeeded in seizing the weaknesses of businessmen and the world. Before the charity fundraising banquet was held, it had been talked about by everyone.

On the day of the banquet, because there were several requirements for the name of ”good businessmen”, only the first number of places with the largest amount of donations were selected. After receiving the news, these businessmen all scrambled to make donations, lest they might lose their name if they donated less.

In terms of nobility, because the stone tablet is ranked according to the amount of donation, the people who donate more money naturally rank first, and the people who donate less money naturally rank second. For this reason, the people who donate money are also red faced and scrambling to throw money.

After a banquet, Xia Xiaochan accumulated millions of donations. Although there was still a gap with the Empire's annual tax, it was almost the same.

With such a sum of money, Xia Xiaochan sent people to transport a large number of food, quilts and clothes to the border.

When aoxingyu learned about Xia Xiaochan's fund-raising method on the battlefield, he was surprised. He couldn't help but appreciate it and wrote a letter to express his praise.

With such a group of fund-raising, the people of the Empire were greatly inspired, and the morale of the army was also inspired. The battlefield was in full swing. After Xia Xiaochan did what she could do, the only thing she could do was to wait.

In this process, Xia Xiaochan thought about it and wrote a letter to aoxingyu. The content of the letter is as follows. Xia Xiaochan hopes that if aoxingyu wins the war and maintains the life of civilians, everything is valued by ”harmony”.

There has been no news since the letter was written.

Three months later, the news that the emperor had won the war spread to the capital. As expected, the emperor treated the civilians in the same way as Xia Xiaochan's letter. The soldiers occupied other people's property, and everything was valued by ”harmony”. Because aoxingyu was strict in running the army, the Imperial army was supported by the civilians. After aoxingyu captured the state of Chen, he recovered the lost land smoothly, Unified the Empire.

Hearing the news that he was safe, Xia Xiaochan finally put down her heart and looked forward to his return day by day.

However, Xia Xiaochan did not know that his return was not happy together, but brought her another injury.

Aoxingyu came back two months after the victory of the war. After he came back, he wanted to reward the three armies. For a moment, he and Xia Xiaochan just took a face and hugged Xia Xiaochan tightly. He went to the Jinluan hall to be busy.

After he left, some servants came to see him.

Seeing xiaoshunzi who followed aoxingyu to serve, Xia Xiaochan hurriedly said, ”xiaoshunzi, what's the matter?”

Xiaoshunzi glanced at Xia Xiaochan and his eyes flickered. Nono said, ”madam, that... Madam, the servant came to ask her. There are two people. I don't know how to place them?”

Xia Xiaochan was stunned for a long time before she recovered.

After all, at the beginning, she didn't react. She never thought that there would be other women in aoxingyu.
